COMMODORES TO OPEN CARD FRIDAY J Geneva To Meet Catholic High Five In First Game Os Season Here The Catholic high school Commodores are rounding into condition for I their first basketball game of the seaI son, to be played in their own gym, Friday night, with the Geneva Cardinals furnishing the opposition. Coach “Shorty" Laurent is giving particular attention to endurance developing exercise this week and the players are I taking a snappy run every morning. Tonight, the Commodores will play a practice game with the General Electric quintet. This will give Coach Laurent a chance to see what his boys will do under fire. The starting lineup for Friday night is uncertain yet. Gass and F. Mylott appear to be the most likely candidates for the forward berths. A. Miller is showing up good, however, and may get the call over one of the other two. Wemhoff looks good at center, but Gage has been working out at the pivot position, also, At guard J. Mylott, Sorg Harris and Coffee look best. Sorg is bothered with a sore foot however, and may not be able to play the entire game. Millet is on the sick list this week, also, but probably will be in condition by Friday. New gold colored trunks were given out to nine players last night. The nine player were J. Mylott, Sork Wemhoff, F. Mylott, Gass, Harris, Kohne, Coffee, and Miller. More trunks have been ordered and they will be given to Rumschlag W. Klepper, Vian, Murphy and Gage. These fourteen players will be carried on the squad all year, it is said. Green sweaters will be worn with the gold trunks. The St. Joe eighth grade team will meet the Sts. Peter and Paul team of Huntington in the preliminary game Friday night. The game will start at 7:30 o'clock. The big game will start at 8:30 o’clock. A big crowd is expected to see the Commodores meet Gen eva in the first game of the season here.

A large number of season tickets have been sold and more are expected to be disposed of before the game starts. There will be several single admission tickets available on the night of the game, however. ——o War Torn Scars Os France Healing Rapidly Indianapolis, Ind. Nov. 8 (INS) The war torn scars of France are fast healing, and World war veterans desiring to revisit the battle fields soon will find only rural scenes, according to Prank A. White, who had charge of the publicity for the recent France convention of the Legion. Territory around Dead Man's Hill and Verdun, where France lost 450,000 men, still remains virtually as it was at the end of the conflict, White said. Poisoned by gass, the ground is not fit for agriculture. Less than one half the French graves have identified. White said, while nearly all the American graves have been identified. Each grave, he said, is marked by a white marble cross. — o Indiana Issues 251,226 Hunting Licenses In Year Indianapolis, Ind.
